This is one hell of a boring show. They're not being original. It's like there memorising the all script. Not even the good one. BBC rather wrap it up and do something else.

The 3 guys have hit the pitch perfectly. Solid car reviews, solid banter, solid driving skills, and solid presentation. Great section on the Alpine, fantastic guest, and awesome SUV tests at Downton Abbey. Can't wait till the next season. Thank you Matt, Chris and Rory.
Unwatchable rubbish

For a while It seemed like they might get away with Le Blanc leading but no,this isnt it either. The other two guys seem like two total c?cks as May would put it, with no spark and who do not care if they completely trash a car.
Le Blanc at least seems human and as a bloke next door. And dont get me wrong, TG even with Clarkson & co. treated their cars sometimes pretty roughly. But not like this.
In this last episode of the season, the show completely lost any spirit the previous incarnation had, the love for the cars, the automoto ethos, that man-machine bond that was present and very often seen with Clarkson regularly praising how he fell in love with his cars over the specials or Hammond and May even BUYING the very cars they used in the show.
This new TG is the opposite of that. Everything is "entertainment". No respect for the cars, no more at least partially practical tests for the cars. Its all nonsense. So seeing a beautiful new Volvo xc60, Alfa or Volar jumping and destroying their suspension for no reason, its just ridiculous. Their whole attitude towards cars is different. Especially Harris and Rory. Le Blanc seems a bit better. Its become a terrible cr*p show aimed at pure stupid entertainment at whatever cost. The bottom line is not love for the cars and everything automotive anymore, its lets make it as loud,ridiculous, stupid and explosive as possible and hope we attract those stupid-cannot-be-still-for-4-seconds types. Either it should be canceled or give the reins to Matt and bring back the LOVE FOR THE CAR foundations that Top Gear has always been built on.
